Sometimes I hate Flex… Sometimes

Vicker | July 24, 2008 | 7:15 pm

Don’t get it wrong… I am not leaving Flex, most of my current developments still rely on it and I am sure it will last for several more years.

Working with Flex for nearly two years. I am sure I have the right choice however sometimes Flex do makes me mad.

  • SWFLoader content can’t be unloaded completely.
    (How many times you try to replace a loader content but you notice the content music never gone away)
  • VideoDisplay component doesn’t play .flv correctly…
    Not even those produced by Flash Video Encoder…
  • Non standard CSS
  • Math.floor (Math.random () * 4) + 6
    (Oh my god… I just want a random integer)
  • Smooth scroll List
  • Disabling Ctrl key during drag move
  • Gradient fill Container
  • Full screen Keyboard input…
    (I understand security… but that should be user’s responsibility… not developer’s obstacle) 
Flex Builder related…
  • Why can’t I export my syntax coloring settings? 
  • I don’t know which part I haven’t done yet… WHERE’S MY TODO!?!?
  • Auto building get set function please…
To be continue…
Adobe…. please… I love advancedDataGrid… but fix the old ones first…

Flex FAQ#4: 利用 Adobe Flex 做 Video Player

Vicker | September 12, 2007 | 10:12 pm

又係一個好簡單既問題~ 但係絕對可以玩死人~
用 Flex 想播 video 基本上只可以用 VideoDisplay component + FLV movie format
FLV movie format 可以點整呢? 當然係 Flash Video Encoder CS3~

但係 Flash Video Encoder 其實好多野未必 convert 到~
WMV? bye bye~ MOV? bye bye~ 就算 MPG 都有可能無啦啦無晒聲~
AVI 暫時算係一定可以 import 到既 format~
如果你用 Windows 的話~ 可以試下用 erightsoft 既 SUPER

http://www.erightsoft.com/SUPER.html

可以將 WMV, MOV 等等轉左 DIVX AVI~
(見到 可以直接 convert 做 FLV 既朋友唔需要興奮… 係唔 compatible 架 =.=||)

好喇~ 睇黎好似問題已經解決左~ 不過唔好意思~
當你好開心咁 convert 晒 d video~ 翻睇一次~ 你會發覺…
所有 video 一 play 到大約 3 份之 1 就會 kick 住左~
之後如果你郁 slider~ 就會無左聲… what the…

究竟係 encoder 問題? codec 問題? OS 問題?
我試晒 Windows 同 Mac 都唔 work…
但係用 Flash 既 Video component 播又無問題… 似乎又係 Flex…

咁究竟最後可以點解決呢?

YouTube…

將任何 format video 放上 YouTube (within 100Mb)
然後等 YouTube 幫你 convert 做 FLV
最後用 VideoDownloader down 返個 FLV…
Quality 算 acceptable~ 但起碼係最 stable 既解決方法~
Please Adobe! 買多幾塊烏蠅拍唔該… 太多問題喇~ 仲要下下攞命…
有幾多問題? 聽日再 Blog…
